Could I receive a consultation regarding the shallow pitted acne scar in the center of my cheek and enlarged pores together?
I used to have persistent acne breakouts on my cheeks for quite some time. Although the breakouts have subsided significantly now, a few small, shallow pitted marks remain where they used to be. The pores in the center of my cheeks also appear enlarged, so when I apply makeup, that area looks uneven. As late autumn has arrived and the weather has become drier, dead skin cells are flaking off, making the marks seem even more noticeable. I was wondering if I need to manage the pitted marks and pores separately, or if I can receive a consultation on both at once, so I have compiled this information.
1. Do you check shallow pitted acne marks and enlarged pores during the consultation?
2. How does the management of pitted marks differ compared to red or brown marks?
3. If I am still experiencing occasional breakouts, when would be the best time to schedule a consultation?
4. Are there any precautions I should take when exfoliating or moisturizing at home during the dry season?
I have attached a reference photo at the very bottom that is similar to the condition of my cheek.
